  4. What's Good January 18-21, 2012

  5. What's Not So Good January 18-21, 2012

  6. Steps • Dispensing • Milling/Screening • Blending • Granulation • Drying • Compression • Coating • Packaging January 18-21, 2012

  7. Dispensing • One of the most critical steps in pharmaceutical manufacturing • manual weighing on a weight scale with material lifting assistance like vacuum transfer and bag lifters • automated weighing • Issues: • dust control (laminar air flow booths, glove boxes) • weighing accuracy • multiple lots of active ingredient with different assays, moisture and residual solvent content • cross contamination January 18-21, 2012

  8. Raw Material Dispensing Record January 18-21, 2012 January 19-22, 2011

  9. Considerations Theoretical quantity of API [100% assay (anhydrous) and nil water] = 30Kg January 18-21, 2012 January 19-22, 2011

  10. Milling/Screening • Principle: Mixing or blending is more uniform if ingredients are of similar size January 18-21, 2012

  11. Manufacturing Instructionsscreening January 18-21, 2012 January 19-22, 2011

  12. Blending • Blending is the most difficult operation in the manufacturing process since perfect homogeneity is practically impossible due to differences in size, shape and density of particles January 18-21, 2012

  13. Granulation • Principle: A size enlargement process that converts small particles into physically stronger & larger agglomerates January 18-21, 2012

  14. Manufacturing Instructions blending & granulation • Mixing SOP No.: Granulation SOP No.: January 18-21, 2012 January 19-22, 2011

  15. Manufacturing Instructions wet milling • Wet Milling SOP No.: January 18-21, 2012 January 19-22, 2011

  16. Recent Advances in Granulation Techniques • Steam Granulation: Modification of wet granulation; steam is used as a binder instead of water; granules are more spherical and exhibit higher rate of dissolution • Melt Granulation / Thermoplastic Granulation: Granulation is achieved by the addition of meltable binder i.e. binder is in solid state at room temperature but melts in the temperature range of 50 – 80˚C [e.g. PEG (water soluble), stearic acid, cetyl or stearyl alcohol (water insoluble)] - drying phase unnecessary since dried granules are obtained by cooling them to room temperature • Moisture Activated Dry Granulation (MADG): Involves distribution of moisture to induce agglomeration – drying time is reduced January 18-21, 2012

  17. Recent Advances in Granulation Techniques • Moist Granulation Technique (MGT): A small amount of granulating fluid is added to activate dry binder and to facilitate agglomeration. Then a moisture absorbing material like Microcrystalline Cellulose (MCC) is added to absorb any excess moisture making drying step unnecessary. Mainly employed for controlled release formulations • Thermal Adhesion Granulation Process (TAGP): Granules are prepared by moisturizing excipient mixtures with very little solvent in a closed system (tumble mixing) with low heating – mainly employed for preparing direct compression formulations • Foam Granulation: Binders are added as aqueous foam January 18-21, 2012

  18. Drying • Purpose: To reduce the moisture level of wet granules January 18-21, 2012

  19. Manufacturing Instructions drying • Drying SOP No.: LOD: 1.0-2.5% (moisture balance at 105ºC) January 18-21, 2012

  20. Manufacturing Instructionssize reduction & blending • Size reduction SOP No.: Blending SOP No.: January 18-21, 2012 January 19-22, 2011

  21. Manufacturing Instructions lubrication • Lubrication SOP No.: January 18-21, 2012 January 19-22, 2011

  22. Compression • Principle: Powder/granules are pressed inside a die and compressed by two punches into required size, shape and embossing January 18-21, 2012

  23. Manufacturing Instructions compression • Balance no.: Vernier Caliper no.: • Hardness tester no.: Friability tester no.: • Disintegration tester no.: January 18-21, 2012 January 19-22, 2011

  24. Manufacturing Instructions compression January 18-21, 2012 January 19-22, 2011

  25. In-process Checks January 18-21, 2012 January 19-22, 2011

  26. Coating/Polishing • Principle: Application of coating solution to a moving bed of tablets with concurrent use of heated air to facilitate evaporation of solvent January 18-21, 2012

  27. Manufacturing Instructions coating January 18-21, 2012 January 19-22, 2011

  28. Other Issues • Yield: • of lubricated granules • of compressed tablets • of coated tablets • Dedusting • Metal detection • Scale up • Life-cycle management January 18-21, 2012
